28 Bruised swelling, left front. 115 – Medical examination of April 21, 1993: Traumatic brain/skull injury, multiple contusions. 116 – Medical examination of May 18, 1993: Torn hymen at 3, 6, and 9 o’clock, old injuries. Anus, torn at 12 o’clock, healing; presence of 117 hemorrhoids at 6 o’clock. Conclusion: Deflowering not recent; indications of recent unnatural act. 131. This information indicates that while she was in the custody of agents of the DIVISE and the DINCOTE, Gladys Carol Espinoza presented new injuries each time she was examined, from her arms and head on April 18, 1993, to her legs, face, and buttocks on April 19, 1993, culminating with the tearing of her anus on May 18. A considerable increase can also be seen in the seriousness of her injuries, going from bruises to her upper limbs and hematoma on the scalp to traumatic brain/skill injury and tearing of the anus. 132. On February 20, 2004, the Legal Medicine Institute issued a medical examiner’s certificate at the request of the National Terrorism Chamber, before which Gladys Carol Espinoza had been brought for the crime of terrorism.

[…] Observations: Previous forensic medial certificates are requested. 118 133. While the examination of April 18, 1993, reported no old bodily injuries, the one dated February 20, 2004, refers, inter alia, to “multiple hypochromic scars on the rear thorax.” Finally, the Commission notes that the examination of May 18, 1993, reports a healing wound “compatible with a recent unnatural act.” That coincides with Gladys Carol Espinoza’s claims that a wooden object was inserted into her anus. Other bodily injuries recorded by these medical examinations are also consistent with the victim’s narrative of the beatings she received while in the custody of the DIVISE and DINCOTE agents.
